wifi: cfg80211: fix return value in cfg80211_get_radio_idx_by_chan()

If a valid radio index is not found, the function returns -ENOENT. If the
channel argument itself is invalid, it returns -EINVAL. However, since the
caller only checks for < 0, the distinction between these error codes is
not utilized much. Also, handling these two distinct error codes throughout
the codebase adds complexity, as both cases must be addressed separately. A
subsequent change aims to simplify this by using a single error code for
all invalid cases, making error handling more consistent and streamlined.

To support this change, update the return value to -EINVAL when a valid
radio index is not found. This is still appropriate because, even if the
channel argument is structurally valid, the absence of a corresponding
radio index implies that the argument is effectively invalid—otherwise, a
valid index would have been found.
